Searching and filtering layers

One of the new features in Photoshop CS6 that users have been asking for for several years …is the ability to search for and filter out different layers in the Layers panel inside of Photoshop. …If I drag out the Layers panel here, you'll see that I've got several different layers …stored in groups inside of my document. …What I want to be able to do is instantly search for or filter out different layer types …to easily find the content that I need to target. …In previous versions of Photoshop, I would have to go, open each individual group, …and find those layers individually by searching through the Layers panel like this.…

Now, in Photoshop CS6, I have the ability to either search for or simply filter out different layer types. …So for instance, if I know that I'm looking for the bird icon right here, I can go right …here to the top and choose Name and in the search field type in the "Bird," and it automatically …finds the Bird icon layer for me. …I can then select it, and I can move or manipulate the Bird layer any way I want to. …
